Following this early-December 2023 recording, there will soon be at least one additional significant development (an "epilogue") in the OpenAI/Sam Altman governance saga beyond Altman’s initial firing and reinstatement.
I think the epilogue is about to drop
Explanation

Jason said, in early December 2023, that an epilogue to the OpenAI/Sam Altman governance drama was “about to drop,” implying further significant developments beyond Altman’s November 2023 firing and rapid reinstatement. In the months after the recording, OpenAI completed the WilmerHale review and, on March 8, 2024, publicly announced its findings, expressed full confidence in Sam Altman and Greg Brockman, returned Altman to the board, added three new board members, and introduced enhanced governance measures—clear, major follow‑on steps in the same saga. (openai.com) Further structural and governance changes over 2024–2025—such as board expansion with Paul Nakasone, changes to the Startup Fund’s control, and decisions about nonprofit control of the for‑profit arm—extended this governance storyline even more. (apnews.com) Because such substantial “epilogue” developments did in fact occur soon after the podcast, the prediction counts as right.
